Pros

Ability to work independently, small enough that your efforts have an impact

Cons

Very political, controlled chaos, may the best man win. Not very focused on developing internal talent, particularly with all the acquisitions. Intentionally create a competitive internal environment rather than a supportive one.

Pros

Industial comparable benefit but slightly better in some areas. Professionalism and friendly colleague relationship at the local site level. Great teamwork at the local level.

Cons

Lack of overall company culture and believes. Many talking points and hand waving busy works. lack of allover business strategy and direction. Lack of management accountability. Employee moral and spirit is not very good.

Pros

absolutely none today. if they would really start building the "one global company" as board is talking about already for years, this might improve, but no employee expects this to happen anymore

Cons

there are huge fights between board level members against each other no common objectives and strategies, so fire fighting is daily business no trust for employees and managers who take the lead to transform their own functions communication style is missing any respect and value to employees even though most staff members know what needs to be done, the top executives prefer to talk to investors and their consultants, who increase the chaos with new ideas every other day
